  • 2 dead in crash east of Kamloops

Mounties in the Interior say two people are dead after a crash between two semi-trucks on Highway 1 near Sorrento, east of Kamloops.

Chase R-C-M-P say officers responded to the crash at 11:45 P-M and found one of the semis travelling east had failed to make a right turn, resulting in the truck flipping onto its side in the oncoming lane. 

They say an oncoming truck was unable to stop in time and crashed into the other semi, killing the driver and a passenger inside. 

The driver of the oncoming truck suffered minor injuries and police say they're investigating the circumstances of the crash.
